Below is my personal production schedule.
Some times and dates had to be altered, as well as the cast; The actress who originally was cast as Miss Speling unfortunately injured herself the day before the classroom scene, so I instead filmed the breakup scene instead of the classroom scene that day. I cast another actress to play the teacher as the original actress was in too much pain to attend any recordings.
The actor playing Joe had other arrangements that day that he'd already informed me about in advance. I was going to record his classroom scenes early so that he could leave for his other appointments, but due to the swap in schedule he was not able to join Caitlin and I on Matilda Street for the breakup scene. Luckily, I was able to complete this filming the visuals for this scene without him as his character was conveniently hidden behind a bush. At one point, however, he sticks his arm and waved; For this I set up the camera for an over the shoulder shot of Caitlin, then I hid behind the bush and stuck my hand out, letting the audience just assume it was Joe.
I later arranged for the actor to record his lines for that scene, which I later added in as a voice over.

LO1 - Task 1 - Treatment: Planning for Film Idea
24/03/14 -Objective for end of session - Planning with Griffin.
For this project I was originally working with Griffin, but later ended up working individually on our own separate film short-film projects.
When Griff and I were planning for this unit, we both wanted to work on a short film instead or a music video, so this decision was easy. We thought about what short film we could make and we came up with a futuristic satire of police action dramas, looking at films like Hot Fuzz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Fuzz) and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_Kiss_Bang_Bang) for inspiration.
After we presented our initial idea, here is the feedback received from other pupils in the class.
Once me and Griff decided to work individually, I chose to still work on a short film, but didn't wish to develop the original idea and instead work on something else. My teacher recommended a few ideas, one of which was a mockumentary. I looked mostly at the mockumentary T.V. series "2012" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty_Twelve) for inspiration, as well as actual Channel 4 documentaries and looked out for recurring tropes and other documentaries features that I could parody.
My idea for a short film was a mockumentary about someone who suffered from a disorder called Over-Active Pun Syndrome.
